[Foodie Friday Recipe] Cilantro Lime Grilled Corn

Say farewell to summer with this easy & delicious grilled corn recipe for your Labor Day barbecue.

I know corn isn’t the healthiest food on the planet, but for me, the summer wouldn’t be complete without the occasional ear of fresh sweet corn!

Grilled corn is especially awesome, but it can be hard to get it right without scorching kernels. Wrapping the ears in foil before grilling helps prevent the burnt taste of scorched husks or kernels, while still imparting that amazing grill flavor.

The lime juice, cilantro, and spices give this delicious version a unique twist that will leave your barbecue guests clamoring for the recipe – and for seconds!
